    We had booked for surprise bridal shower for our friend and let me tell you! I WAS BLOWN AWAY BY THE EXCELLENT SERVICE we received! From when we were just outside approaching the place one of the stuff member asked if we coming to Ginja and helped us carry our decor! The food! we got our value for money (We we’re on the Sunday Buffet) everything was delicious and again the service from the team was amazing! Our waiter was so helpful, friendly and calm! A breath of fresh air! (I did not get his name but for the waiter for bridal shower on the 1st of June 2025! God bless you sir! All in all a 5 ⭐ from us! I would highly recommend and will definitely be a regular from now on.

    The food was okay. We were having a good time until a noisy group arrived. The pianis was playing good music, but had to stop because of the noise from the group and the staff didn’t ask them to keep it down.

    Great dining experience, best crème brulee we ever had. We will definitely go back. The only thing I must point out is that we struggled to find the restaurant and did not know it was inside of the hotel, it would perhaps be a good idea to have signage outside.

    Hi, Our experience at GINJA was just amazing. Took my mother -in law for mother's day buffet, and it was her 75th birthday too. the food was great, as was the selection. Clint our waiter was just simply amazing, and made us feel so at home. the vibe was just great and the view stunning. The pianist in the background was awesome. we are certainly coming back.

    A lovely lunch with friends from the UK - sat outside on a perfect day! The service was outstanding - Barbs is an asset to Ginja and must be looked after! She takes initiative, has a bubbly personality, is there when you need her and she pre-empts what you need - the best waitron and service!! Food was great, wine good too, although quite pricey, but to be expected in the Waterfront. Would go again and definitely recommend it - but I would want to sit outside if a lovely day!
